Multimodal Passenger Information in Alpine Cross-Border Traffic

Transports de Martigny et Régions (TMR) operates a diverse transport network in Wallis with trains, buses, and cable cars – including the Mont-Blanc Express across the national border to France. To provide all travelers with a reliable information service, we have developed a passenger information system for TMR that can be continuously expanded – most recently with a control center for bus traffic.

Our Approach

A central platform for all modes of transport
Our solution receives real-time data directly from the ILTIS interlocking system and automatically generates forecasts for travel times, track changes, and arrivals. Complemented by powerful timetable management, periodic timetables and long-term planning can be maintained centrally. A direct connection to the SBB customer system CUS enables cross-modal information, even for long-distance, funicular, and bus connections.
